I didn't read enough, the spacers are for the thuren track bar correct or do they work with the OEM track bar.....now I know what's next on the list

The spacers are necessary if you have rear diff armor like the Purple Cranium Half Spider, and extended rear swaybar links such as Thuren’s.

Track bars are not involved.

So it will give me more articulation stock but will it decrease ground clearance

If you increase your suspension travel with longer springs and shocks, the factory swaybar and links will straighten out when the suspension droops and become the droop limiter. Extended links correct for lift height AND added suspension travel range.

When Thuren designed his links, he designed for the OEM diff cover. When you add extra armor there, the swaybar (with extended links) doesn’t have its full range of travel and binds up when the suspension compresses.

I have no lift and stock sway bar. I ordered the spacers thinking I needed them with the purple cranium diff covers. Thought about ordering the sway bar links but not sure I need them.

Or an excuse to get a Thuren suspension and a *** half spider? You’ve already sunk about 1% of the total cost, might as well keep going ;)

It doesn't reduce clearance. The dented transmission pan on the website is mine.

Don't be like me. Buy one.

Just my .02, but why not Put a Thuren lift and some armor on your rig. I mean you already bought the spacers so.....8D
